Atlantic WW1

[Tony Wheeler]

"Nearly every aspect of what we would consider modern warfare debuted on World War I battlefields."

Well, except for radar, jet propulsion, aircraft carriers, guided missiles, strategic bombing, and most obviously - nuclear weapons. Plus rockets, poison gas, armoured cars, machine guns, etc., all of which debuted in earlier conflicts, some of them 1000 years earlier. In fact, apart from the tank, I'm struggling to think of any weapon that debuted in WW1, let alone tactic or strategy, which were straight out of medieval warfare.

Great photos, but what a ridiculous statement. Modern warfare debuted in WW2, not WW1.
